The /install option fails under some circumstances. See just-install/registry#207 (comment).

Congrats for this nice project that looks nice!

I have this error message on Windows 7 x64:

Is it possible to build a version for Windows 7 @geek1011?

Hello,
It seems that the build artifacts were removed.

Suggest feature for cancel EFI BootNext request.

noted that there is difference between 1st optioned selected and none selected.

For example on system that able to disable EFI entry. And none of all is enabled

Set 1st option as BootNext will boot the 1st while unset BootNext cause EFI warning of no bootable device.

I have to disable all EFI entry because Surface Laptop Studio only have UEFI password not Boot password.
So I can boot system without UEFI password, and that cause security problem for me (ex: getting data or damage system through making Windows RE booted up)
So I need disable all EFI entry and boot up via UEFI setup menu (require UEFI password).
And since I have Windows 11 + external Ubuntu installation, I have to set BootNext for convenience.
But sometimes I just need to shutdown without BootNext, so I request this feature.
Or else I have choose non-bootable entry such as PXE Network, but that also cause security concern.

Great concept, but I don't think the program is effective at distinguishing two Windows instalations. I've tried all options with no changes to the boot order. I am using the built in boot manager for Windows 10. Any idea of where I could be going wrong?

It would be useful to add a /SYSTEMD option which controls the bootloader using the BOOT_LOADER_INTERFACE rather than the firmware itself. This would be useful for more complex multi-boot setups.

I tried something like:

• clone the repo

• go to bootnext-master

• launch this:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\MSBuild.exe" bootnext.sln
  

  or

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\amd64\MSBuild.exe" bootnext.sln
  

  and/or /property:Configuration="Release|x64"

• but it always failed because I don't have the right version:

error MSB3644: The reference assemblies for framework ".NETFramework,Version=v4.5" were not found. To resolve this, install the SDK or Targeting Pack for this framework version or retarget your application to a version of the framework for which you have the SDK or Targeting Pack installed.

But I already have many versions (more recent) of .NET framework (Developer pack) installed:

Is there a way to automate the install of the dependecies needed to build your project?

Something that can be done 100% from command-line? (I don't have the Visual Studio IDE, I don't use it).

Thanks again!

I using Surface Laptop Studio, on Linux I see all entry from what displayed in Surface UEFI (Firmware setup) and in bootnext.exe but also including SurfaceFrontPage (which I think it is Surface UEFI).

But this dont appear in bootnext.exe

I dont know if this technical limitation is bug or not.

The site that held the binaries apparently deletes them after 6 months.
